SARM President Ray Orb has called on Prime Minister Trudeau to include rural municipalities in any economic and western unity discussion.

Orb told SARM delegates in Regina Wednesday that rural Saskatchewan has resources that fuel the economy and must be included in any unity and economic talks.

Orb also says he opposes stiff federal regulations on pipeline development, the carbon tax and the equalization formula.

He also called for improved farm business risk management programs.

Orb says he is waiting for a call from the P.M.
